Mostly true, but it's not completely 1:1.

Yeah, well it's been a while since I last tried to clean up locations of 
things. DDR controller bindings are not in the best shape.

You shouldn't have to think about that. Bindings should be for DDR 
controllers regardless of whether there's a driver for devfreq, EDAC, 
perf, or ??? or all of those.
